I want to first say "BRAVO" on this blog! It shows such commitment and hard work. And, it also appears FUN!

I am an owner of a 16 room bed & breakfast inn in Naples, Maine called Inn at Long Lake. Owning the business is one of the true joys of my life. I was the chef here for 4 years prior to becoming the inn's owner, so it seemed fitting that I become its next owner.

Long story short: The rooms were named after Maine boats since its opening in 1980. In April 28, 2009 (my 1 year anniversary!), I re-named all guest rooms after Classic Hollywood & American music icons of the 1920's & 1930's.

The choices I made after much consideration can be viewed on the Inn at Long Lake (dot com) website.One of my first thoughts was:"I want a MAE WEST ROOM!" My friends all agreed, and hence Room #6 is now the "MAE WEST ROOM!"

I will certainly let all fans of hers know about your beautiful blog and its lovely followers.

Mae West IS a force of nature. Her energy, talent, and example are timeless.
